Wedge-Tailed Eagle.

Finally caught up with large dingo this morning that has killed a few new born calves,after dealing with it in the customary fashion,I selected a large granite boulder to put it on and attach a trail cam on a tree nest to it,to video them coming to feed.When I got back to put cam on-they where already there!-how do they find tucker so quick!

Had the 400 mm L lens-its days like this,that one really appreciate this lovely piece of glass.I've shown the frame size out of camera,and a crop and very basic PP,the PP here does not look as good as the high res version-its going to be worth spending time with some of the frames I got.

Its a about as close as I have been able to get to these big blokes in the wild.Not sure distance I was,approx 150-200 m

Hope this is of interest-thanks for looking-lots of hard work to get a reasonable image of the larger raptor.
